As my Wales travelreport got quite a positive response i thought i would show another trip, so its Tenerife this time.

My kit consisted of a nex-5n, kit lens, Zeiss 45/2, Minolta 100/4 Macro, Minolta MC 200/4.

day 1: flight and a short walk

Beautiful shots - as a die hard mountain biker that looks like a great place to ride.

Just awesome. You really seem to have your PP of NEX files down to an art. Do you use LR?

jepp, i posted some screenshots of how i develop here: http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1144124/3#10931534

Good shots. I love #3. On the fifth one (masca again) I would love to see a version with the foreground and background darkened a bit to emphasize the light hitting the hill in the center.

^ - thanks!

Beautiful stuff Phillip, thanks for sharing.

Day 2: from Teno Alto to Masca
Buenavista


most of the time we were walkin throug the clouds:




or through juniper-forests






nearly there:






Los Gigantes:

Beautiful places and as much photos..

Day 3- Part I

Part II - Masca gorge

inspiring.

#3 is fabulous

Light in last one is pretty amazing..

Hm, if everyone says something bad about that kit lens for NEX, I will direct them to this thread.

Awesome. Makes me want to be there instead of my office at work.

Is your sharpening limited to LR?

Or better yet, how do you sharpen for presentation?

thanks @all :-)
@plasticmotif
I use step-sharpening in PS. I used to export the full resolution Image to PS and sharpen them in 4 steps. Now i let LR resize the image to 6mp, then i apply a 3-step script, i am at my girlfriends right now, else i would post a screenshot of the script.
Denoir was the one who made me aware of how it works, have a look http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/936822/0&year=2010#8846510 (i wasn't too happy with that exact script though).

(sorry about the different framing)
